Congrats on the possible deals, the game is looking as great as ever. This is still one of the top to get games. Can't wait for it to come out.
Well I have a few more jumps to create. They usually only take a few days once I know what I'm going to do. Was thinking of an "old west" theme but I can't think of what the jump should consist of. Hmmmmm..... I should have more news in a few days about a release date.
Heres an idea for the old west theme. Have a jump where Dave is in 'jail' and he drives out over another building onto a road with a sign that says something 'Vegas: 110 miles' or something. More of a story mode feel, i guess.
Have Dave jumping covered wagons or cowboys and indians on horses for the old west theme. Still cant wait for this one.
I could imagine the little fake 2D town fronts (Saloon, Jail, Post Office, etc. all lined up side to side) used for the ramp.
Note the cars down below...as if falling wasn't bad enough for Dave! I'm receiving a lot of emails still regarding a release date (and I've answered them all I believe). I won't be able to give a definite date, but in a few days I should be able to narrow it down. I'm just focusing now on improving the game.
I'll update as best as I can: I have increased the amount of jumps to be included from 12 to 18 for the release. I have a few more to build, so that will take a few weeks max. I am really going for it with these jumps and they are very cool! In the meantime, I am awaiting word on other business - meaning a possible publisher. I do not want to prolong the release unnecessarily though. Once the game is completed, there will be a decision to be made. I am not going to speculate on a release date until I feel confident in doing so, however the game is essentially complete. Other than the few more jumps I am adding, I am tweaking the menus again to make the game as easy to understand and navigate through as possible. The game runs great, there are virtually (as in I haven't found them) no bugs, and it is fully playable. I can only say that I want this game to be in top condition when it is released. Here is a sneak peek at a jump I am building right now. I don't usually like showing things that are so unfinished, but what the heck.
UPDATE I'm not making promises, but Dave should be released around the end of April - possibly sooner, hopefully/probably no later. It will be released/published under our own M-Digital Media label. Since I know it will be asked, Dave will most likely be released at a $2.99 price point. There are 2 jumps to be completed, and some fairly big (though quick) menu changes to be done. After that is finished, the game will be released! Thanks for all the emails, they are always welcome. Feel free to ask questions here, PM me, or email me from the Daredevil Dave website: http://www.mdigitalmedia.com/daredevildave/
New Game Mode! Injury Tour Mode will be a last minute addition to the game!!! There already exhists an Injury Mode where you try to achieve the worst injury possible and upload it to the leaderboards. Injury Tour mode goes a step further. You will travel along Dave's 18 jumps trying to achieve the highest total medical bill for all jumps combined. You will get one attempt for each jump, the goal being to crash hard! If you land the jump safely, you will receive nothing! I have a feeling this will be the most popular mode of play, but there is a catch...you must complete a regular tour first, which unlocks all of the jumps. The game should be released around the end of April! Couple of new screenies! This is an old west town. You can see they have a rather dangerous version of a water heating system here! The goal is to jump through (or over) the gallows, then through the water tower framework, all without getting burned. The fire shoots up every few seconds so you must time the jump correctly. It's a tough one!
Awesome. If it weighs in your figuring at all, I'd pay even more thanthat if necessary. But I'm one who has long believed developers should be chargingmore for apps on iDevices. This is an instabuy for me on release as long as it's $6.99 or less.
